Bath & Stonehenge


On Saturday, 4 friends+ myself had to drag our buts out of bed at no later than 6 o'clock in the morning to go down to the bus stop in town. Oh joy! Being at Ingvilds birthday party Friday night, meant we hadn't gottn many hours of sleep. Oh well.. What to do? What to do? Anyways, this days adventure was non other than a very historical one. We were like you might have guessed (or more likely have read in the title), going to Bath and Stonehenge. After 3 and a half hours on the bus (ZzZzZzZzZz) we finally arrived at Stonehenge, which is in the middle of nowhere. Amazing how it was created there and why it was built and how the heck they did it?! Who knows? It was quite the experience seeing it in real life and not in pictures. So after an hour walking around what has to be the most famous rocks in the world, the bus headed for the city of Bath. Which is also very old and historical. The romans invaded the city over two thousand years ago and discovered the hot springs there and created a huge "spa-bath-temple-thing" for them to use. Thats where the city got it's name; Bath! The city also became a world heritage site in 1987.  Well enough of the history lesson.. (Rosalyn would be proud) .....We got about 4 hours in Bath before the bus went back to Cambridge, which was just enough. Not a very big city, but still plenty to see. We didn't want to spend too much money, so we mostly walked around just looking at everything and taking loads of photos.. Here are some:



And there it is!!
